Hello worst fears.

[MommaTrish]

So I'm constantly having nightmares about the hubs getting in a wreck on his way to or from work or while at work. I even freak out thinking he must have when he's a little late getting home.
Well, I got a call from him this morning saying he'd been in a wreck on his way to work, but he made it seem like nothing too serious, he just called said he was in a wreck and asked me to call my step-dad to come get him. (they work together) My step-dad calls me when he got there to say I needed to pick up the hubs and take him into the hospital to make sure he was just sort of sore from being tossed around. After spending hours at the hospital and then dentist this is what I have found out...
First his truck:

Some guy ran a stop sign and John hit him going 50. The other driver was ok, but his daughter he had with him had to go to the hospital in non-critical condition. John hit his mouth and chest on his steering wheel and a piece of his dashboard fell off and landed on his knee. (His airbag never went off) He has a chest contusion (bruised sternum), his knee is about 3 times it's normal size (but not broken or dislocated), 4 front bottom teeth knocked loose, one tooth chipped, and a cut on the inside of his cheek where he bit it. He's really woozy and achy. They prescribed him some pain medicine and says he can't go back to work until Friday, but shouldn't go back at all until Monday or Tuesday, he's convinced he'll be good to go back Friday. He can't even stand or sit straight right now and he thinks he'll be back to working on cars and doing heavy lifting by Friday. His dentist said he won't be able to do anything until John gets a lawyer and takes some legal action about the wreck. We hadn't even been planning to take any legal action, I mean we talked about it, but the guy admits it was his fault and has insurance so we didn't see any need to, so it sucks the dentist is saying he won't do anything without it. The hospital was great. They didn't have us pay anything and will contact us soon to see about the insurance information of the other driver so they can bill the company directly.
I don't know why his dentist is being like that, but he'll be going to see another one too. We really don't want to sue the guy if we don't have to, so we're hoping to find one that is going to be more like how the hospital was.
